Answer: 3 miles per hour
<u>Step-by-step explanation:</u>
Use the formula "distance (d) = rate (r) x time (t)" to create a system of equations.
Let "r" represent the rate they are rowing
Let "c" represent the current
time rate distance <u>EQUATION</u>
Downstream: 4 hours r + c 40 miles 4(r + c) = 40
Upstream: 10 hours r - c 40 miles 10(r - c) = 40
Distribute, then eliminate r to solve for c:
Down: 4r + 4c = 40 → 5(4r + 4c = 40) → 20r + 20c = 200
Up: 10r - 10c = 40 → -2(10r - 10c = 40) → <u>-20r + 20c</u> =<u> -80</u>
40c = 120
<u> ÷40 </u> <u>÷40 </u>
c = 3
The first graph is the answer.
Sorry i don't know. I hope you get a answer soon
Answer: Meghan spent $687.5 per year.
Step-by-step explanation:
Let x represent the amount of money that Scott spends per year for auto insurance.
Meghan spends 25% more each year for auto insurance than Scott. The value of 25% of the amount that Scott spends per year is
25/100 × x = 0.25 × x = 0.25x
Therefore, the amount that Meghan spends would be
x + 0.25x = 1.25x
If the amount that they spent together is $1237.50 per year, it means that
x + 1.25x = 1237.5
2.25x = 1237.5
x = 1237.5/2.25
x = 550
The amount that Meghan spent per year would be
1.25 × 550 = 687.5
Answer:
The circle should be open and the arrow should go the other way.
